figgy gets technical on a handrail

[sfa]

I gotta agree with everyone, Figgy seems like an early front runner.

Lot's of videos to go this year still, but ya gotta give the guy some credit. Also, ya gotta see him in person, dude just slays it!

[managuense]

figgys cool, puttin it down for the tall skaters

i heard, not sure how reliable it is, but that figgy is pretty much guaranteed, with bake and destroy coming out on thrasher and all

Baker/Thrasher video part, potential Emerica part, lots of coverage like this, and Phelps is already stoked on him.

there were rumors of a new emerica video/project. sounds like bullshit but it would be the best.

i have read in at least one interview that emerica's working on a video that'll have parts from all the younger guys (westgate, provost, leo, figgy etc..)

also, people gotta stop bitching about busenitz not getting soty. clearly he doesn't give a fuck about it so why should you? its a THRASHER award that has become recognized as the only one that really holds any weight. Its not a hard concept to grasp. if you aren't doing shit for thrasher and hanging out with phelps, you ain't getting it.

as long as he keeps putting out ads and films a full part it's guaranteed.

i was really hoping with all the omar footage coming out lately that he would take SOTY.

[ttching!]

I wouldn't ever have picked Figgy as an SOTY candidate, but there are some arguments here which do seem to bring him into the conversation for this year. ? Personally, I'm liking Suicu or Jake Johnson.

Phelps has been saying Figgy was going to be SOTY 2012 since fall 2011. Welp

tre flip a 5 flat 5 flat 5 deserves SOTY alone

figgy could have been soty when he was 16. best handrail skater in the game and his switch game has been on the rise this past year.

figgy is undeniably a very talented skateboarder, not undermining the praise to him or anything but...

rick mccrank in the end.

you need more than just handrails to get SOTY.

He didn't even have the best part in stay gold, so there goes that argument.


I really don't keep up with skateboarding as much as a lot of people, but after Stay Gold came out, I was like, "when is Westgate going to get SOTY?"

You must not have seen this.
